The start for the race is on a path, through the woods, on the lower slopes of East Lomond. The path commences at the top of East Loan where the now demolished factory is and will be marked with red tape. Parking is available in the car park next to the Falkland Community Hall, Back Wynd, Falkland KY15 7BX, and toilets are available, albeit at a nominal cost. Give yourself 10 to 15 minutes to reach the start.

The Falkland Estate have asked us not to use their car park in the grounds of the Estate, nor to park on the approach road into the Estate.
